I just want to mention that it’s our social media and journalist and stuff who focus on Americans.

@@BarryB.Benson Yea id say like 50/50. It's not that Canadians want to talk about America. Is just inadvertently since many things popular in Canada are tied to the US.

@@randomassname445 We don’t tend to lose sleep over the opinions of those that are powerless to affect our lives. Our lack of concern stems from the impotence of foreign nations when it comes to imposing their concerns upon us. It’s a “We’re going to do what we please and you can cry as you will” vibe. As it stands, every single Canadian could be totally united in purpose like the Borg, determined to cause Americans grief, and all of them combined in effort and will wouldn’t so much as be able to seize Vermont or Maine from us without us decapitating your entire country.

Because unlike UK Canada actually live close to the us and feel America is so wrong and a stain to them which is stupid....Canada should learn to understand America history and understand why USA is as it is.....

@@sundayroast4785 and the fact that Canada's view in the world is largely down to how it does economically, which is heavily dependent on the United States, which they did intentionally due to the fact that after WW2, the US had wages that were like twice that of the second closest country.

No. The UK just believes the USA is condescending considering their circumstances. The UK is not some oppressive dystopian because it has a ceremonial monarch. You are basically the same country, only difference being one is posh and cold and the other is wild with amazing weather. EDIT: I want to add more lol basically the USA seems to think they broke free of the horrors of Britain, but it was a parliament which declared war and a parliament which ended it, and had been in power since 1689 before Great Britain even existed. I am half American half English, I love both but have noticed the USA appears condescending sometimes, as if their special relationship with the UK is charity work and they can ditch the UK whenever they want. It’s not Britain thinking it’s better, it’s britain thinking that America thinks it’s better. And I promise you the British media is fucking horrific, and has unfortunately plagued the population into believing the world hates them and they can only rely on themselves. It’s not arrogance, but instead being told that other countries believe you are nothing and you can only rely on yourselves. Brexit shows how much impact the media such as the Daily Mail and the Sun has corrupted the population. The most ironic part is that people equate their reluctance to love America as arrogance, as if they’re too salty to accept the American revolution. I’d like to remind everyone that during British & American occupation of the San Juan islands in 1859, the British celebrated the 4th of July with the US, and the US celebrated Queen Victorias birthday with the UK. That was in fucking 1859. No one in 2022 is bitter besides Americans who are passionate Anglophiles. I promise as someone who sees both sides I can clearly tell the “hostility”. I want to add I truly think the USA and UK are the two most cooperative powers in world history, they are the biggest consumers of eachothers media, news, entertainment, population, and the governments are unbelievably intertwined (militarily and intelligence agencies), to the point where MI6 were entrusted to spy on the USA population and the CIA on the British population to circumvent domestic surveillance laws… and were ironically caught by Der Spiegel, which is German lol. The British media basically insinuates that the USA cares little for Britain yet Britain fights alongside them everywhere. The right wing US media then reaffirms this , with politicians like Trump saying NATO, which was started by Britain, is uneven and a waste of time. But it’s so painfully flawed. Look at any video regarding the sights of the USA & the sights of Britain and you’ll see 10,000+ comments about how much they love eachothers country’s. 9/11 was the biggest terror attack in English history, with around 60 Englishmen dying, and the queen ordered the USA’s anthem to be played by the royal band, which has never been done before in the history of Britain & England besides a state visit. The USA gave $31b to Britain in Lend Lease, which was over $20b more than the USSR who were literally mid invasion against the Nazis and initially losing. The amount of bond these two countries have is staggering, and it’s crazy to think they are even closer today than they were when they were still considered the exact same country.

And the "tests" usually involve unlabelled maps or time limits. And honestly, I don't think it's fair to expect anyone to be able to look at an unlabelled map and pick out any random country no matter how far away it is from them, but some people in the world really do hold us to that standard.

Public healthcare allows everyone to get help and live a healthy lifestyle where everyone is treated equally and that is something that Canada has a right to be proud of.

America has a high income gap lots of Rascism huge levels of gun violence that are not seen in other countries in the first world a huge problem with obesity and problems with its police force as seen many times with them being racist particularly towards black people.

It really just goes to show how insular their thinking is. Canada's healthcare system is perfectly normal for a western democracy, while the USA is a massive outlier. If Canadians think their healthcare system is uniquely special, they must have very narrow horizons which don't go at all beyond the North American continent.

Most of the complaints though are worries that American HMOs and trade policies will work to dismantle it and turn it into an American-style system.

@@alexpotts6520 This may be true, but I can't think of any western democracy that doesn't have pride in its healthcare system. Even in the US, there's pride in the healthcare system, more for its abilities and outcome success, just not it its prices or disparities.

@@ElGrandoCaymano Oh yeah you can and should be proud of an institution that saves lives.

Very interesting. I'm a white Zimbabwean living in the states and I find myself consciously trying to hold on to my accent because I get so many compliments and admiration from everyone in the US. The fact that young people outside the states are becoming a little bit more "anti American" is possibly an American culture trend of being anti-American, a result of the baggage of slavery, colonization and destruction of native American lives and broadening wealth disparity that young people feel more strongly about. However, I do see young Americans be more open to Americans talking shit about America - when non Americans talk ill of the US, they are met with combative disagreement sometimes. Kind of how only Brits complain about British weather and don't expect foreigners to agree. I do find people back home to seem opposed to the US but it is more of a jealous insecurity

MacLean's documented these and other comments. www.macleans.ca/politics/washington/donald-trump-canada-trudeau-insults/ As for tariffs and Canada being a national security threat, a few months ago US re-imposed protectionist tariffs on Canadian aluminum, and used the pretext of them being a threat to "national security". (Note, these protectionist tariffs were previously levied for not only aluminum but steel, for the same pretext). Of course Canada being a national security threat (if indirectly) was simply an excuse and not believable. Nevertheless, I'm sure a few people bought it because America. www.cbc.ca/news/politics/aluminum-tariffs-trade-trump-trudeau-1.5724391

​@@iminyourwalls8309 Of course it goes without saying that appeal to a national security interest was just a pretext to invoke tariffs. But if there was a point to those tariffs, I missed it, as did pretty much every analyst I read. (Mainly it seemed to be a combination of getting tough for the sake of the election, and lobbying by the American aluminum makers who both did feel threatened and one in particular that had billions in Russian aluminum to unload. But if you have some further insight, please feel free to share.) It goes without saying the pretext is more believable if the facts support it, and they did not. Counter-tariffs were therefore much more likely to be allowed. And we made our own point clear: if you start a trade war we know how to make it hurt in ways that will cost you domestic support in your election. But the point I was trying to make is that stereotypically, Americans might think being anti-Canadian is pathetic. It's true, they think this, and we prefer it that way so we continue to be underestimated by them. The US President was anti-Canadian (rhetorically) when it suited him, but found out just how bad a hand he had when he tried to follow through.

I feel like JJ is giving people the impression that there’s this sentiment in Canadian media that America sucks and we’re activity cultivating that hatred. But our media is almost entirely American. We go on Reddit, watch the news, read papers - even in Japan, people talk more about how shitty Americas culture is today. But we’re all mostly getting it from American media, not ours. People look at the US now and see it as a symbol of modern decline. Canada is afraid of that decline and being pulled down, whether real or hyperbole. We don’t hate Americans, not really, but America kind of scares us. I’ve got no praise for Canada though - it’s the blandest, most lethargic country I’ve lived in.

well now you know

It’s not hatred it’s…smug superiority

​@@dothedeed yeah I think this is more like it

Yeah it's because any Canadians who don't hate America usually move there and realize Canada isn't paradise

I'm curious, what happened when you visited Canada? Did you get a lot of flack for being American?

@@breakingfree7244 not really personal attacks.. just a lot of passive aggressive statements and more than average comparisons on how much better Canada is than the US. They all seem very obsessed with everything US but focus one the bad a lot in general conversation, and they REALLY hated when I said that Canada feels exactly like the states in almost every way.. 😂 One waitress asked me if I was visiting to escape “the hell that is the states” and I said that “everyday life is nothing like what you see in the news and life is great!”… she seemed kinda upset to hear that, but delivered in that pure Canadian “friendly” passive aggressive kinda way. I genuinely think they really want us to talk about how awful life/the country is at every opportunity and they really get a rise out of it.. haha. That being said, I love Canada and my Canadian friends. Just a weird dynamic up there.

@@breakingfree7244 for context, this was in a fairly small town in Alberta, so what you said is spot on. Same things happens here in the more rural areas. My prior visits to Vancouver and Toronto were pretty typical north American big cities with all the familiar charm and flaws of our big cities. There was less small talk with strangers and I didn’t get much of those vibes. However, I never advertised I was from the states after those first couple visits to Alberta haha

How could they decipher your American?

JJ I’ve always agreed with your accurate assessments on how Canadas this crazy Left-wing country that’s scared of America. Myself, I’m pro USA in every way. I always think Canadas Nationalism should be as well.

AL PD well tbh Americans started out by defining ourselves as "Not part of the British Empire" and we collectively made a lot of conscious decisions to reflect that as a culture. Coffee instead of tea, driving on the right hand side of the road, inventing our own sports, etc. So it makes sense that Canada, which started out by defining itself as "Not the United States", would have taken a similar cultural path.

@@definitelynotobama6851 "Coffee instead of tea" What are you talking about, nobody made a conscious decision on this, the only reason coffee became anywhere near as successful in the US (which was over a century after the breakaway) was because the US had more direct control and contact with tropical zones where coffee is commonly grown. "driving on the right hand side of the road" This wasn't conscious either, that just happened out of coincidence, most nations drive on the right side, even Canada does so. The UK, Japan, and a collection of former British colonies are the only nations that drive on the left side, and the US didn't do it because of the UK, it just happened. (which I'm pretty certain was the result of German, French, and Spanish immigrants which make up more then the British populations ever could) "inventing our own sports" Actually this is incredibly ignorant of the history of baseball/cricket, soccer, and football/rugby, none of these sports were invented in the US (alone at least) and they did actually start in the UK and France. Foremost soccer and football used to be the same category of sport and were prominent in both the UK and the US, up into the 1880s or so. After a bit of time a US football (as both soccer and football were called football) organization started developing their own form of football, and between the British and American organizations they worked together to develop soccer. The British rugby organizations that started to crop up ended up not cooperating as much with the American organizations and that's where the split generally ended up happening. As a result football in the US developed independently and was constantly being modified to become more action oriented until you get modern American football. The root of football and soccer were from the same place however and they were developed and invented by both sides of the pond, we did not invent football, we merely modified it slightly. (and its not like we consciously changed it to be different) Cricket has a much similar story, though the divergence is a bit earlier then football. "So it makes sense that Canada, which started out by defining itself as "Not the United States", would have taken a similar cultural path." Not according to what you've said, everything you mentioned happened decades if not a century after Canadian nationalism had already been defined, hell this stuff only existed after the Springtime of Nations where nationalism was revolutionized in Europe, which was well after Canadian nationalism.

MegaCake1234 thanks for the novel. Nobody cares.

@@definitelynotobama6851 Those who don't like liars do.

@@definitelynotobama6851 LOL, "inventing" seems like a stretch,IMHO, USA sports are simply modified sports taken from UK (Baseball from UK Crkt/roounders; Football from UK Rugby) what do you think?

Probably because Canadian media blasts American news 24/7.

And this highlights the difference between a superiority complex, and a inferiority complex. As JJ mentions, what many of these Canadians who indulge in this type of nationalism are doing is just exposing their own insecurity about Canada vis-a-vis the US. So in the end all they're really doing is insulting both nations simultaneously.

@@redrave404 Personally, I think the level of emphasis we put on "being better than the US" is self-destructive. I don't care that we rank higher than the US in terms of healthcare, I care that we ranked behind Britain, Germany, France, Australia, New Zealand, etc. We shouldn't be content with our system being second worst.

@@redrave404 Yea I've never understood the inferiority complex thing. Sure, the US economically and militarily is much more superior to Canda, but culturally, we're pretty much the same.

As an American, I pray hope for our northern friends. Canada likes to portray herself as a tolerant society yet Americans are not tolerated in the slightest. That fact is quite hypocritical of Canada to do since excluding one nationality and treating them like trash just because you’re “less worst” then them, yet Canada fully embraces anti-American bigotry just because we revolted against Britain over taxes and lack of representation. J.J.’s video woke me up to this shocking revelation about this “left-wing, anti-American nationalism” in Canada and after I’d fully watched it, I wish for the end of this stupid bigotry towards my nation and let us and your fellow Canadians be friends. I wish for a better future. 🇺🇸🤝🇨🇦

In most US school systems, it's taught as a draw. It was militarily inconclusive, with the Americans, British, and Canadians all getting things that they wanted in the end.

@Canuk Kun that’s a shit take, location doesn’t dictate character the individual does. I was surprised to find such an attitude in Canada but your comment is confirmation.

Civic nationalism is the only true nationalism. It could also be called Resistance Nationalism. It's "wingless" because it opposes oppressors from all sides, whether from the left, right, or anywhere else. Of course, anyone who supports gun control can't realistically claim to be any sort of freedom fighter, so a Resistance nationalist should advocate civilian ownership (and mastery) of modern weaponry. It's a philosophy and mentality similar to the Czech Resistance during World War II. *Note:* "Levied" would be a better word than "leveled."

Gotta divert all of that cultural xenophobia into something. The US has central Americans, the Canadians have the Americans, and the quebecoise have everyone.

And in Nazi Germany, Communist Soviet Union

Same here in Southeast Asia. Mainly the non-muslim countries though (but even then, with exceptions such as the Moro Islamic Liberation Front in the Philippines, who fought for an independent "Bangsamoro" while also pushing for more leftist policies) Well here in the Philippines, everyone declares themselves as nationalist, but especially the left, as the aim of the left is emancipation from foreign influence/rule and the indigenisation of culture and education, without going back to the pre-colonial social structures It makes a lot of sense though. When oppression of the working classes come from foreign companies, nationalism serves as a way to fight both foreign intervention and oppression of the lower classes While in countries such as Switzerland, the assumption of nationalism is that it serves to degrade the lower classes that generally happen to be of foreign origin. The lower classes already work for Swiss companies, so there isn't a need to fight foreign influence Can't really tell much about Canada so my comment isn't that related with the video as it takes a more "third worldist" view

Left wing leads to the death of Nationalism.

@joseaca Fascism is right wing. North Korea is a communist slave Nation. Leftism leads to communism.

@@edstar83 ....did you not watch the video lol? Nationalism is not tied to the left or right rather just a appreciation of what makes your nation special. The fact that the fucking nazis of all people started out as "national socialists" aka left wing should allude to this. To say that Leftism leads to "communism" is just ignorant at best and down right wrong. Left wing doesnt lead to anything neither does right wing, it depends on what the nation at that moment deems important that dictates where it goes politically.

Well... yeah. Yes.

Well if by "without America" you mean "The Revolution never happened", we would be one nation today. WWII would also have been a LOT shorter.

Can’t say Canada is united, perpetual request from Québec to get more indépendance, from Alberta to be more conservative, from BC to be more environmental.etc

That's right. And without UK there were no USA, thus why fight them in war for independence?

You're welcome, Canada!

There are certain cultural things beyond political structure that tie Canada together, east-west. But overall, the Maritime Provinces are similar to northern New England, Ontario to the Mid-West (which includes some prominent cities), the Praire Provinces to the Prairie States (conservative cowboys who love oil...), and British Columbia to the Pacific NW. Sure, there are British instititions and cultural artefacts... but America has those too (maybe fewer that date to the 19th or 20th centuries, but still). And even that left wing spirit not only ignores how conservative parts of Canada are, but how liberal parts of America are. In fact, the brand of liberalism in Canada is hugely American-influenced. The major American cities and Canadian cities are similarly liberal, and their rural areas similarly conservative. Even peculiarly American conservative ideas like the 2nd amendment seep over because these people share a language and media space. And in the end, British North America already has a lot in common as evidenced in the name.

Americans infrequently think about Canada unless they live in the North. Down here, not so much.

I've always thought of Canada as our best friend. We speak the same language, have a lot of the same culture and history, yet still are able to maintain distinct identities. I don't think I'll ever understand why some of them hate us so much.

Very insightful. I've only been to Canada once, but being from the Midwest, I've met many Canadians who share the same attitude toward the US you describe. I think it's kind of sad really, because I see our nations as brothers. Each are flawed, but both are brilliant in their own way. Most left-wing Americans (of which I consider myself to be) don't look at Canada's flaws at all. They only see the universal healthcare, relaxed marijuana laws, and less-war focused nationalism, but they don't see the crippling oppression of Indigenous people, political corruption at the Provincial level, the exploitation of the banking industry on disenfranchised nations, the high child homelessness rate, or the casual bigotry and racism that pervades their culture as much as ours. These flaws don't make me hate Canada, but they do reinforce the fact that our countries are no where near as different as Canadians like to think we are. People always assume I would prefer to live in Canada because I'm liberal. Absolutely not. I said that's like trading the home where our problems get addressed out in the open and we work to fix them and fight for a better society for the home where problems are often swept under the rug in the name of defining yourselves by who you aren't. No, thank you.

Same experience here man, but I won most of them over by out hating America. I have since left the continent and live in asia lol.

I don’t know. I deal with Canadians on a semi-regular basis. I know they are Canadian, and they know I’m an American. With more avid users of the internet, people just don’t care. As the two nations are interdependent politically, economically, and digitally, people are bound to connect across the border more often than across the ocean. Then it gets to a point where, it’s hard to hate Americans when 1/3 of your friends are Americans. Just like it’s hard to hate Canada when 5 of your best friends are Canadian. It’s easier to hate people without an expansive social circle, but once it’s established, it’s much more difficult. That’s just the way it is.
